In a gritty narrative set against a backdrop of corruption, a group of ruthless racketeers orchestrates a scheme to frame John Ellman, a struggling man with little to lose, for a murder he did not commit. Despite a trial that deems him guilty, new evidence emerges to clear his name, but the revelation comes too late as he is already executed. A determined doctor, intrigued by the boundaries of science, seizes the chance to apply an untested procedure in an attempt to bring Ellman back from the dead, raising profound questions about the limits and ethics of such an act.
